Lemon Cheesecake Tarts — We put a twist on your regular old cheesecake recipe with these Mini Lemon Cheesecake Tarts that require minimal baking and a special ingredient, goat cheese!
Hi everyone! Did you know it’s National Goat Cheese Month?
In honor of this esteemed holiday, I bring you my mini lemon cheesecake pies recipe with a twist. A goat-cheese twist!
Side note. I recently went to a dairy farm where I cuddled the most adorable baby goats. And now I’m obsessed, which is why I also conceived this recipe.
Tart, creamy and tangy — these mini lemon cheesecake pies are the perfect summer treat and it requires minimal baking (just for the crust).
This has to top my most favorite sweet treats, and I hope you’ll enjoy them just as much!
